Half Rack Colocation: 20U–22U of Locked, Powered Cabinet Space for Your Own Servers

By space, a 20U–22U half rack holds roughly 20 1U servers or about 10 2U servers, less whatever you reserve for a switch, patch panel, and cable management. In practice, power is usually the limit before space is. Add up the rated draw of your equipment and compare it with the circuit capacity of the plan (1×5A on Basic, 2×5A on Standard, 2×16A on High Density).

If you don't own servers and don't need specific hardware, a VPS or dedicated server rental is simpler: no hardware purchase and no replacement parts to manage. Colocation fits when you already own the hardware, need equipment a provider doesn't offer (such as specific GPUs, storage arrays, or appliances), or have a steady workload where owning the servers costs less over time. VyomCloud sells both, so you can run colocated core systems alongside VPS instances.

Plans include one 5A circuit (Basic), two 5A circuits (Standard), or two 16A circuits with dedicated PDUs (High Density). Higher-density configurations are available through the Custom plan, and power is delivered on A+B redundant feeds.

Yes. Authorised staff can access equipment 24/7/365 with prior notification and government-issued ID verification at the security checkpoint.

Yes. VyomCloud offers full 42U racks and custom private suites in the same facility, and the Custom plan covers special power or connectivity needs.

VyomCloud's half rack plans start at ₹18,999/month for Basic (20U, one 5A circuit, 100 Mbps), ₹24,999/month for Standard (21U, two 5A circuits, 1 Gbps), and ₹32,999/month for High Density (22U, two 16A circuits, 10 Gbps). Custom plans are quoted individually. Cost depends mainly on rack space, power capacity, and bandwidth; cross-connects and extra remote hands can add to the total.

Choose a 1U rack for one or a few servers, a half rack for about 10 to 20 servers or a storage array plus network gear, and a full rack once you'd fill more than about half. If you're between sizes, choose by power draw first, then space.

A steel partition divides the cabinet, and each half has its own independently keyed combination lock on the front and rear doors. The facility adds biometric scanners, mantraps, 24/7 CCTV, and security staff at entry points for additional layers of protection.

Remote hands is on-site technical support: server reboots, hardware replacement, cable management, and troubleshooting at your request. Basic includes remote hands on request, and Standard and above include 24/7 remote hands.

Yes, you bring your own hardware, and servers with out-of-band management (IPMI or similar) can be managed remotely, with remote hands for anything physical.

No. Month-to-month, annual, and multi-year terms are available, with discounts for longer commitments. A 7-day money-back guarantee lets you test the facility and support with your own hardware.
